Abstract (en)

[origin: US6085158A] PCT No. PCT/JP96/01323 Sec. 371 Date Jan. 22, 1997 Sec. 102(e) Date Jan. 22, 1997 PCT Filed May 20, 1996 PCT Pub. No. WO96/37964 PCT Pub. Date Nov. 28, 1996When errors occur in a received code sequence, an error concealment routine part 130 is actuated and a correct code sequence is generated based on a code sequence received before the errors are detected. A decoding routine part 21' executes a decoding process based on this code sequence and updates the internal state based on the decoded result. Thereafter, when the code errors are recovered, an error recovery routine part 140 is actuated. The error recovery routine part 140 re-estimates a correct code sequence during a time period when the errors are detected, based on a code sequence received before the errors are detected and a code sequence received after no more errors are detected, and generates a second estimated code sequence. The decode process part 21' executes the decoding process based on an internal state information for retaining the second estimated code sequence in an internal state storage part 23', and updates the internal state information based on the decoded result. By doing this, the quality of the decoded speech, which has recovered from code errors, can be improved.
